LEO does offer legitimate advantages not just to latency but also for minimizing the abandoned space junk left in orbit. The satellites will deorbit fairly quickly after running out of fuel.

Though I’m sure you’re correct about the main reason for the choice.

Works is a strong word. It’s a better choice than dialup or Hughesnet, but that’s damning with extremely faint praise. If you need to rely on it you might be in trouble. There are still gaps in the coverage where you will be dropped for a while.

SpaceX is getting the government funding NASA doesn’t anymore.

They are years behind schedule and obscenely over budget on this testing. They’re not even making new technology here, they are just cheaping out on the builds to funnel money into their own pockets.

You’re being downvoted for being factually wrong about the title. It’s not targeted negativity.

They do have chapters which could allow creators to separate sponsor ads into a skippable segments. Some of them even actually do it.

Ublock orgins on Firefox has worked for me so far on both pc and mobile. No warnings.

I do also have umatrix on pc, but I can’t really recommend it for everyone since it requires some setup on every web page which most people would find too annoying.

Bitcoin is not directly a scam. Rather it is a vector for scams. It makes scamming just a bit easier until regulations catch up.

Now, the various meme coins are directly scams. You are guaranteed to lose money buying into them.

BTC is still less stable. It will need to stop being a pump and dump cycle target before it could claim a true future.

Regex in a nutshell.

You would be the one at fault in most states anyway as long as you’re technically operating the car. They do that mostly for potential lawsuits from their customers.

That’s slightly different since most states will put full responsibility on the driver even for autonomous cars. If there’s no driver, though, it would go back to the manufacturer. That’s why Uber gave up on self driving after one of their test cars ran over someone.

There are non-region locked DVD players.

It is a lie anyway. Apple favored China because they could pay next to nothing for the labor and didn’t have to worry about pesky safety rules. They’d have gone there even if the women had sausage fingers.
